TONY IS AMAZING!…read more Here's my story: I contacted Transformations Fitness (which I found here on Yelp) for my 10-day stay in Honolulu in February, I didn't want to get out of shape just to get back into shape when I returned to California. I signed up for Tony's semi-private sessions which seem like private sessions (his sessions are at Kaka'ako Fitness which is shared with other trainers and patrons of the fitness center). For my first session, Tony definitely took it easy on me. He took me through the stretching routine that I did at the beginning of each session. The link to routine is sent to your email with a helpful youtube clip of the stretches. Also during this first session, Tony inquired about my goals and what I wanted to work on during my training session. During my sessions that followed, Tony helped me become stronger physically and mentally throughout the short time he trained me. Tony guided me through exercises that were familiar as well as new ones. I requested that he incorporated kettle bell exercises and he followed through with that request. I enjoyed my sessions with Tony and I would definitely come back when I am back in town. You could try talking yourself out of a rep, but Tony is great at what he does and is able to coach you through your limiting beliefs and assist you through your transformation process. Thank you Tony!

During the consultation he addressed my goals, eating habits, health/injuries, and recommended a training schedule. Without hesitation I signed up and started right away. Ben was patient, supportive and motivated me when I started to slack. He is an amazing trainer who is both personable, knowledgeable and flexible with scheduling. I've been training with Ben for two months now and can definitely see and feel a difference. It's the best feeling in the world to fit back into clothes that were too little a few months ago and have more energy throughout the day. If you want a push, results and no judgment definitely check out Bodies by Ben you will not be disappointed.

I came into this fitness journey by luck not expecting much due to ineffective gym and training…read moreexperiences in the past... BUT in one of my rabbit-hole spiraling moments in the first week of June, I found Mkg8nz on Yelp not realizing he was about to change my POV and fitness mentality for me. Zeke is a very skillful, intelligent and intentional trainer. He does all the thinking for you and all you have to do is show up for yourself every single day. He changed my perspective of gyms being absolutely terrifying and intimidating when you are out of shape and/ or overweight. Truthfully, the hardest part for me was showing up that first day being a total newb in strength training. And it helps SO MUCH when your trainer is fun and keeps things lighthearted to see if you're listening. He started me off with training three times a week and a strict calorie deficit regiment for the first month. He is really good at reading his client's needs and is very intentional in his training methodology. Now after helping me lose 7 lbs, gain a new perspective on strength training and mental clarity, you don't notice it, but the fat just melts off on its own and your clothes start fitting so much better. Once again, all you have to do is SHOW UP for yourself! The rest will follow. I am so grateful for all the muscle aches, sweat and tears these past four months and I can confidently recommend Mkg8nz to any guy or gal looking to take your fitness journey to the next level. Zeke is down to earth, knows what he's talking about and knows what he's doing in the gym. You can see that as soon as you meet him. He is quite caring and an observant trainer. He encourages you at the exact moment right before you're about to give up. He will literally remind you why you started in the first place.

I became very overweight, I couldn't sleep, I would wake up in the middle of the night unable to breathe. I felt like getting back in shape was impossible. Reached out to Zeke @ MKG8NZ and he said "the most important thing is that you really want this, and I'll guide you through the rest!" In 90 days, I lost 40 lbs, gained a ton of muscle, lost my double chin, lost my spare tire, my cravings changed, my energy came back, my snoring is gone, and I sleep like a baby. I have great habits now and I feel in control of my health again. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MKG8NZ to anyone who wants to feel strong, confident, energized, healthy, and proud of who you are. Their programs are easy to follow, customized to your goals, body, age, lifestyle and you get feedback and encouragement all along the way!

Great gym and group fitness culture, they will push you in a good way that doesn't intimidate you. Really nice equipment as well and I'm grateful they have everyone wipe everything down in between sets, very clean! If it's your first experience in a group fitness class, do not be afraid to ask questions and get to understand the machines! Music is fun but sometimes tricky to hear the coaches well enough to understand exactly what to do especially if it's your first time. BUT if that's the case, just smile and work hard -- even if it's not exactly what they say to do you'll still get a great workout in :) TIPS & TRICKS: * They do offer cheaper validated parking but if you're willing to get a walking warm up in before your class, just park at the Kakaako Waterfront Park! * Tons of awesome spots around SALT too, so get some post workout snacks after. * Ask about different membership opportunities, they have a lot of options might fit your lifestyle better (monthly passes, special week passes, or punch passes) * Last but not least, HAVE FUN AND GET YOUR SWEAT ON!
